Van Nguyen's Flat Proves Clutch

Level 12 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

From under the gun, Waylon Frey raised to 2,400. Anh Van Nguyen flatted from middle position and action was folded to Jesse Cohen on the button. He three-bet to 7,600 and the blinds folded. Frey thought for a moment and decided to slide the rest of his chips in, about 25,000. Van Nguyen reraised all in and Cohen mucked his hand.

Frey: {j-Spades}{j-Clubs}
Van Nguyen: {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}

The board ran out {6-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{a-Spades}{2-Diamonds} and Frey hit the rail. Nguyen stacked up 95,000 chips after that pot.
